TRAUMATIC INTRAVENTRICULAR HEMORRHAGE IN SEVERE BLUNT HEAD TRAUMA: A ONE YEAR ANALYSIS
ABSTRACT Background: High resolution CT scan has made early diagnosis of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) easier. Posttraumatic intraventricular hemorrhage has been reported to a greater extent because of the CT scan. Methods: 904 patients were admitted in the NSICU from March 2001 to March 2002 with severe closed head injury, of those only 31 patients with intraventricular hemorrhage (GCS le...
متن کاملA New Model to Produce Sagittal Plane Rotational Induced Diffuse Axonal Injuries
A new in vivo animal model that produces diffuse brain injuries in sagittal plane rearward rotational acceleration has been developed. In this model, the skull of an anesthetized adult rat is tightly secured to a rotating bar. During trauma, the bar is impacted by a striker that causes the bar and the animal head to rotate rearward; the acceleration phase last 0.4 ms and is followed by a rotati...
متن کاملDiffusion tensor imaging and traumatic brain injury.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in Americans, especially those under age 45. TBI accounts for more than 500,000 emergency department visits annually (Nirula et al., 2003). Closed head injury produces cerebral edema, hemorrhage, contusions, and ischemia. Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is also a common consequence of head trauma, and results from rotational...
متن کاملIntracranial diffuse axonal injury at autopsy.
An illustrative case of diffuse axonal injury (DAI) emphasizes features that help to separate focal outer head trauma owing to blows and/or falls from angular acceleration head injuries associated with diffuse inner brain lesions. In the past, explaining significant neurological deficits and death as the result of diffuse closed head trauma received from high-speed automobile accidents has been...
متن کاملGrading of Brain Contusions by Modified Method: An Autopsy Study
Quantification and analysis of brain contusion was initially done in 1970’s followed by 2005. They derived brain contusion index based on parenchymal depth and surface distribution of contusion over brain. We conducted this study with the objectives of whether severity of contusion index determines Post trauma survival, is there a region specific contusion which determines Post trauma survival ...
